The herb of immortality
Sage was highly revered by ancient Greeks who believed that it warded off death and
brought about immortality. That’s why they thought it was sacred and used it in rituals to
Zeus. While women were welcoming their husbands from war with a sage beverage to
stimulate “fertility”.
It has a strong and exquisite musky aroma with astringent notes and a warm spiciness flavor
that makes it a perfect beverage for winter.
It’s commonly used in the Mediterranean cuisine since it makes the most pungent recipes
and the most fragrant dressings.
